SHC seeks re­port on Ayyan Ali

KARACHI—The Sindh High Court Thurs­day or­dered the In­te­rior Min­istry to file re­ply by Mon­day as to why the name of fash­ion Model Ayyan Ali, fac­ing charges of car­ry­ing huge for­eign cur­rency out­side Pak­istan, was still on the Exit Con­trol List

The court or­der came on an ap­pli­ca­tion from Ayyan who was pre­vented from leav­ing the coun­try Wed­nes­day night. She said she was al­lowed by the High Court on March 7 to travel abroad, but so far her name has not been re­moved from ECL.

The Ad­di­tional At­tor­ney­Gen­eral Syed Sal­man Tal­ibud­din told the court that fed­eral gov­ern­ment had ap­pealed to the supreme court against the high court judg­ment.
